Hello everyone, I have a project to share with you today. I have created a mixed media tag for the Chocolate Baroque Challenge Blog, as part of a short bio about myself. You can read the blog post here.
I have used a Tando long tag, painted with gesso, I added some texture paste through a Dutch Doobadoo Swirls stencil, and allowed it to dry. I spritzed the tag with Decoart media sprays, and then added a bit of water to dilute them slightly. I added some gilding wax to the raised area and around the edge. I then stamped a word from the Artistic Expressions stamp set, using Jet Black Archival ink. I stamped two butterflies from The Rose Tree stamp set onto a piece of scrap card, and painted them using some of the spray and a water brush. I cut the butterflies out, and glued them to the tag, adding black flower stamens for antennae.
Thanks for stopping by, xx

Oooo just my kinda tag.... love the deep colours. And you know I have a thing for butterflies. :)
The colours are very 'you' & I particularly like your use of the black flower stamens for the antennae. Even though you've used the same colour families for the butterflies the way they 'glow' & stand out from the page is very effective. I'd imagine with the texture it's an amazing sight in actuality.
Hi Judith, gorgeous vivid colours and stamping, brilliant tag, Kate x
So sweet, dreamly and vibrant tag, love any detail!
